Amazon.co.uk Review
After being introduced for a lecture, Ram Dass eschewed the stairs and, from his front row seat, leapt up on to the stage--or tried to, anyway, until age and gravity brought him crashing down to earth. Like other Baby Boomers, Ram Dass has learned the hard way that ageing is unkind. But he has also learned that it can be an opportunity for growth. While others begin to devalue older people, they will find that they can reconnect with the spiritual, grow into wisdom, and create value for themselves. In Still Here, Ram Dass offers a philosophy for ageing that teaches how to diminish suffering despite the aches and pains and limitations of age. This is possible by stepping away from the ego-self into the soul-self, where thoughts and emotions can be witnessed and their effects evaluated. If ageing has brought challenges to Ram Dass, it has also brought him wisdom which, through his personal anecdotes and stories of others in the struggle against ageing, he shares with great generosity. --Brian Bruya --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   16 of 16 people found the following review helpful: A gentle, clear perspective on living all of your life., 14 Dec 2000 By A Customer This review is from: Still Here: Embracing Aging, Changing and Dying (Hardcover) Ram Dass has aged, and while thinking about aging, had a massive stroke from which he has recovered his speech. The words are more thoughtful now, clearer. There is an economy which has lead to clarity. Reading this work helps one to see what to hold onto and what to release. There can be joy in where you are, though it is clearly not where you were, once, nor where you thought you would be. This is a gift. In each chapter he reminds us, in a gentle, loving way, to love ourselves. Knowing that he has come back from the stroke, that his body is not going to stop relying on the wheelchair, that there was fear and pain in his experience, all this makes his words ring true. Give yourself this gift. And give it to others.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

This book distills the experiences of a lifetime of searching for spiritual meaning. It is probably not the best introduction to him, but it will help anyone facing their "midlife crisis" or having to deal with experiences that confront you with your mortality. Will you "flunk the test" when it is time to leave your body behind? It's worth keeping an eye out for the DVD "Fierce Grace" (from USA)which is a fine 90 minute documentary with interviews with Ram Dass before and as he manages his life after his stroke - as well as some excellent historical footage from his life in the sixties. Namaste.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) › See all 2 customer reviews...		Search Customer Reviews Only search this product's reviews
